While in the past, Suzan and I have had significant disagreements over her radical rhetoric concerning trans history, I’ve noticed Suzan’s tone has mellowed and deepened. While she does not self-identify as transgender, I take no issue with that. Furthermore, since she is no longer asserting as absolute fact the Prince fountainhead myth, I take little/no issue with her writings. For instance, she hit the nail on the head with her recent post about RadFems:
Besides which, doesn’t that chromosomal level essentialism reify patriarchal ideas regarding the essential differences between men and women, a proposition that is a slippery slope to male supremacy and female inferiority.
Or is it just our cunts that offend you?
Is it the scars?
It must be nice to be a Normie supremacist and be able to look down on skin jobs like me.
It must be nice to be a Normie and sneer at and ridicule the bodies and lives of TS/TG replicants.
Do you have any idea the level of privilege you expect when you demand the “right” to discriminate and legally deny us our equality and our human rights?
Some TS/TG people have spoken as to how they hate you for your sense of superiority.
You expect us to have the same hatred for ourselves, that you hold for us and are surprised when we don’t.
It must really blow your minds that we are no longer good little replicants cowering in hurt from your abuse.
It must fuck with your cosmology for us to organize and stand up for our rights, even if our existence offends you.
You want to be separate, be separate. You do not speak for most women. Or, considering how much progress TS/TG sisters have made within the lesbian feminist communities, even for most lesbians.
And if we treat you like Aryan Nation or the KKK it is because you are like Aryan Nation and the KKK, bigots with nothing to offer but hate.
And that’s not hyperbole. Here’s what RadFems have to say about transwomen:
“because the fact of the matter is that unlike born-women, who have everything (literally, everything) to lose from rape culture, transwomen have at least something (everything?) to gain. to a transwoman, cutting off her dick and turning it (inside out) into a fuckhole between her legs makes her feel better. from transwomens own mouths, we know that these fake fuckholes alleviate transwomens suffering. turning their dicks into extra-large condoms for other men to penetrate (or not, whevs…thats my hat-tip to the internet “lesbian transwomen”) actually tamps down their anxiety, and feelings of dysphoria.” – factcheckme.wordpress.com
Or how RadFems feel about the right of trans folk to exist:
… their arrogance and oppressiveness is amazing. It is funny though that they are so used to Feminists immediately bowing before them that they don’t know how to deal with that we don’t care what happens to them. They expect we’ll be shocked to see statistics about them being killed, and don’t realize, some of us wish they would ALL be dead. – BevJo
RadFems wrote the brief that the Reagan Administration used to justify removing trans healthcare from Medicare… which led to states removing it from Medicaid… which led insurance companies following the government’s lead and banning trans healthcare from private insurance. If you’re trans and have suffered because you’ve been unable to access trans healthcare, thank a RadFem.
